Monsignor Martinez
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monsignor Martinez is a fictional character from Los Dias y Las Noches de Monsignor Martinez, a show-within-a-show on the hit cartoon-series King of the Hill.
On King of the Hill, (fictional) actor Eduardo Phillipe plays Monsignor Martinez, a crime-fighting priest known for action-movie-like adventures. Usually, only small clips of his television show are shown in King Of The Hill, although in one episode Peggy Hill travels to Phillipe's home in Mexico to tutor his children.
In his TV series, Monsignor Martinez is known to say "Vaya Con Dios", which means "go with God", before killing one of his nemeses. Although public-shy, Phillipe often does charitable work with sick children. Phillipe is often asked to say his phrase "vaya con dios", much to his chagrin. In episode 8-05 "Flirting With The Master", he refuses and is called a "pant load" by an irate fan.
Monsignor Martinez/Eduardo Felipe is voiced by series creator Mike Judge.
In 2001, Fox ordered an action pilot titled "Monsignor Martinez".[1] Ivo Cutzarida voiced Martinez. However the pilot did not turn into a series, due to the fact that David Herman did not think Fox would want a Catholic priest shooting people.
